It's a trap!

The reason I have your icon, or your old icon, or maybe you don't see anything, is that it's pulling out of Livejournal's cached "scratch space"
Basically, if you upload a pic that's too big, it puts it in a scratch space, loads it into the editor, lets you modify it, and lets you save the result in a pic slot.
However, it doesn't *delete* that scratch image. And the image is still there, stored in your account, weeks or months later.
Meaning that this thing pulls out *the last picture you edited using livejournal's picture editor*.
